Vikings eye AFC South RB ahead of trade deadline

The Minnesota Vikings, currently 6-1 and leading the NFC North, are exploring trade options for running back help before the November 10 deadline. Following a Week 8 loss to the Detroit Lions, the Vikings are in search of offensive upgrades. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler noted that the Vikings could be in the market for Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard if a deal for Jonathan Taylor does not materialize. Several teams are looking for running back depth, making Pollard an attractive option, although executives suggest the Titans may not want to weaken their roster.
